+Guy Davis Wow thx man and welcome to the channel! I have another Google Pixel video that came after this one you may find helpful...its a recap after owning the device for 4 months. Thx again for your feedback, it's guys like you that motivate me to make better and better vids.

Just saw your 4 month review of the Pixel XL and I agree it is a great phone. While its missing a few features those will likely be part of the Pixel 2. I am a believer in the just get it done business model. So long as the phone does not catch fire or explode (cleared my throat), you got room to improve on the next edition. Great video, keep posting.

+Guy Davis Yeah the Pixel was a rushed phone and they did a pretty dam good job, just imagine what the Pixel 2 will be with even more time and a successful platform to build form.

Great video! So much great info. Google should give every new Pixel owner a link. Kind of like an owners manual. I know I'm late to the party, but I ordered my Pixel two days ago. Replacing my Samsung Galaxy S8 no less! Looking forward to switching to Google Fi and saving $50 a month over T-Mobile! I think the Pixel camera will be a slight improvement. Pure Android will be a big improvement! So why not wait until the Pixel 2? I prefer the 16:9 aspect ratio. I think the Pixel will be more than just fine for a couple years for me. Google will keep updating Android and Assistant, so the phone will keep getting better without me having to upgrade hardware. Again. Great video! Subscribed and liked. See you on the KZitems!

+Mike Shaw So you went in the opposite direction lol. I went from the Pixel to the S8 (current daily driver). The Pixel is a flawless experience software wise, you will love it. The S8 is definitely not flawless but it's a dam sexy phone. I will be releasing a follow-up to both phones soon.

I love the S8! When I found out about Google Fi I knew I had to go that direction. The more videos I saw on the Pixel the more I knew it would be great for me. I take a lot of pictures and shoot a lot of video. Perfect! Also, Samsung is a little annoying with their Bixby :-)

yeah I think Google made deals and pushed back the preordered customers. I ordered the pixel xl 128 on Oct 14th and recently was contacted by email on the delivery date for the second time that it was pushed back to Jan 14. really bad business. really kills the whole buying experience. whatever its just a phone

+mmyr123 Wow, that sounds more like something Apple would do. The phone definitely took the market by storm. I have a video coming out soon on the OnePlus 3T which in my opinion is the best alternative to the Google Pixel XL.

You have to toggle "transfer files" from the pixel notification menu when you're connected to the pc. The files should appear in the Pixel folder then. Should work :)

Thanks for the great tips. My question is.. Is there anyway of showing the missed calls or SMS on the icon itself like the Samsung phone apart from the notification bar and the very faint led pulsing. I have a habit of clearing the notification on the pull down menu and when that disappeared there's no other visual reminder that there were some missed calls or text messages. Looking forward to see more of your reviews.

Oh yes just realised you were asking the same question in your Pixel review video :) It's a pity that feature is missing in the Google launcher, my company phone cannot be rooted and I don't really want to use a 3rd party launcher. Thanks for the reply.

+navusx Yeah I totally agree, it should be included in the Pixel Launcher. I think they are striving for a clean look but shouldn't be at the expense of functionality. I actually reverted back to the Pixel Launcher.

Have had Pixel since it's release date. Major blue tooth connectivity issues, especially using Car BT. Last update 12/5/2016 resolved many owners problems, but for many it has not been fixed. See Google Community Forums; search blue tooth
